Bridging the gap between Video and Lighting...

My focus is on media server and video control, integration, and programming. As a programmer, I maintain a diverse portfolio and familiarity with today’s cutting-edge equipment and technology - from making last minute edits and content adjustments, tweaking server programming for a corporate client, dealing with the extreme intricacies of tying lighting into multiple forms of show control for themed entertainment, creating unique looks and developing a great busking page for touring, to handling timeline-based video control. In addition to my primary focus on media server programming I am also an automated light programmer and trained technician.

Drawing on experience from nearly every segment of our industry, I have an in-depth knowledge and understanding of much of the industry’s leading equipment. Understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each piece of equipment and how they translate from one to another ensures speed and efficiency in achieving design goals, in addition to affording me the ability to coordinate with designers who speak different console languages.

I also tap on other resources such as Max/MSP/Jitter and AppleScripting for projects that require advanced control and integration with MIDI controllers, automation control protocols, live human input, and more.

I firmly believe that the best programmers have technical ability, a good sense of design, and the ability to maintain a close relationship with designers.
